Milwaukee is not that bad

I'll be honest. I was dreading the trip to Milwaukee. However, fate was on my side.

Two major events were in town the second week in July: Summerfest, the country's largest music festival, and the NAACP National Convention.

How did I get so lucky? Every single night there were friendly black people in every restaurant and bar in the city. I even had the chance to pay back a co-worker for an unforgotten uncomfortable racial situation. HA!

In addition, Fantasia Barrino was performing at Summerfest. I managed to wrestle my way to the 3rd row. Carrie who? Ruben what? Fantasia is the American idol.
The picture is a little blurry,
but that's her.
